Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1A LAILA kauoha ae la o Dariu ke alii, imihia ma ka hale o na palapala, kahi i waiho ai na waiwai ilaila ma Babulona.
1Thus King Darius ordered a search of the archives stored in the treasury of Babylon.
2A loaa iho la, ma Akemeta, ma ka halealii, o ko Media, he palapala, a peneia ka olelo i kakauia'i maloko.
2And a scroll was found in the fortress of Ecbatana, in the province of Media, with the following written on it: Memorandum:
3I ka makahiki mua o Kuro ke alii, kauoha ae la o ua Kuro la ke alii no ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema, E hauaia ka hale, kahi i kaumaha aku ai i na mohai, a e hoonohopaaia ke kumu; he kanaono hailima ke kiekie, a he kanaono hailima ka laula;
3In the first year of King Cyrus, he issued a decree concerning the house of God in Jerusalem: Let the house be rebuilt as a place for offering sacrifices, and let its foundations be firmly laid. It is to be sixty cubits high and sixty cubits wide,
4Pakolu na papapohaku kalai, a e pakahi hoi ka papa laau hou; a e haawiia ka waiwai mai ka hale o ke alii mai:
4with three layers of cut stones and one of timbers. The costs are to be paid from the royal treasury.
5A o na kiaha gula hoi a me ke kala o ka hale o ke Akua, na mea a Nebukaneza i lawe ae mai ka luakini mai ma Ierusalema, a hali mai i Babulona, e hoihoiia'ku, a e haliia aku i ka luakini ma Ierusalema, o kela keia ma kona wahi iho, a e waiho ma ka hale o ke Akua.
5Furthermore, the gold and silver articles of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the temple in Jerusalem and carried to Babylon, must also be returned to the temple in Jerusalem and deposited in the house of God.
6Ano hoi, e Tatenai, ke kiaaina ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, a me Setare bozenai, a me ko laua poe hoalawehana, ka poe Aparesaka, ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, e hookaawaleia oukou mai ia wahi aku.
6Therefore Darius decreed: To Tattenai governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and your associates and officials in the region: You must stay away from that place!
7E waiho malie oukou i ka hana o keia hale o ke Akua; a o ke alii kiaaina o na Iudaio, a me ka poe kahiko o na Iudaio, e hana lakou i keia hale o ke Akua ma kona wahi.
7Leave this work on the house of God alone. Let the governor and elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its original site.
8Eia hoi ka'u o kauoha aku nei i ka mea a oukou e hana aku ai i na lunakahiko o keia poe Iudaio, no ka hana ana i keia hale o ke Akua: noloko mai o ka waiwai o ke alii, oia ka hookupu ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, e haawi koke ia'ku ka waiwai no keia poe kanaka, i keakea ole ia'i lakou.
8I hereby decree what you must do for these elders of the Jews who are rebuilding this house of God: The cost is to be paid in full to these men from the royal treasury out of the taxes of the provinces west of the Euphrates, so that the work will not be hindered.
9A o na mea e pono ai lakou, o na keikibipikane, a o na hipakane, a me na keikihipa, no na mohaikuni na ke Akua o ka lani, o ka palaoa, ka paakai, o ka waina, a me ka aila, e like me ke kauoha a na kahuna ma Ierusalema, e haawiia'ku ia na lakou i kela la keia la, aole ka ole:
9Whatever is needed—young bulls, rams, and lambs for burnt offerings to the God of heaven, as well as wheat, salt, wine, and oil, as requested by the priests in Jerusalem—must be given to them daily without fail.
10I kaumaha aku ai lakou i na mea ala i ke Akua o ka lani, a i pule aku hoi no ke ola o ke alii, a no kana mau keiki.
10Then they will be able to offer sacrifices of a sweet aroma to the God of heaven and to pray for the lives of the king and his sons.
11A ke kauoha aku nei no hoi au, o kela kanaka keia kanaka e hoololi i keia olelo, e laweia ka laau mai kona hale mai, a kukuluia, e kaaweia oia maluna o ia mea, a e hooliloia kona hale i puu lepo no keia mea.
11I also decree that if any man interferes with this directive, a beam is to be torn from his house and raised up, and he is to be impaled on it. And his own house shall be made a pile of rubble for this offense.
12A o ke Akua, nana i waiho kona inoa malaila, e luku aku ia i na'lii a pau, a me na kanaka, ke o aku ko lakou lima e hoololi, a e wawahi i keia hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema. Owau, o Dariu ka i kauoha aku; e hana koke ia hoi oia.
12May God, who has caused His Name to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to alter this decree or to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued the decree. Let it be carried out with diligence.
13Alaila o Tatenai, ke kiaaina ma keia aoao o ka muliwai, e Setare-bozenai, a me ko laua hoalawehana, e like me ka mea a ke alii i hoouna mai ai, pela lakou i hana koke aku ai.
13In response, Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates diligently carried out what King Darius had decreed.
14A hana aku la na luna kahiko o na Iudaio, a ua pomaikai lakou ma ka wanana a Hagai ke kaula, a me Zakaria ke keiki a Ido. A hana lakou, a hoopaa hoi, e like me ke kauoha a ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a like hoi me ke kauoha a Kuro, a me Dariu, a me Aretasaseta, ke alii o Peresia.
14So the Jewish elders built and prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah son of Iddo. They finished building according to the command of the God of Israel and the decrees of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.
15A ua hoopaaia keia hale i ke kolu o ka la o ka malama Adara, oia ke oao o ka makahiki a Dariu ke alii i noho alii ai.
15And this temple was completed on the third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
16A o na mamo a Iseraela, na kahuna, a me na Levi, a me na mea i koe o ka poe i pio, hoolaa aku la lakou i keia hale o ke Akua me ka olioli.
16Then the people of Israel—the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the exiles—celebrated the dedication of the house of God with joy.
17A kaumaha aku la no ka hoolaa ana i keia hale o ke Akua, i hookahi haneri bipikane, i elua haneri hipakane, a i eha haneri keikihipa; a i umikumamalua na kaokane i mohaihala no ka Iseraela a pau, e like me na ohana o ka Iseraela.
17For the dedication of the house of God they offered a hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and a sin offering for all Israel of twelve male goats, one for each tribe of Israel.
18A hoonoho iho la lakou i na kahuna ma ko lakou mau papa, a me na Levi ma ko lakou mau papa, no ka oihana o ke Akua ma Ierusalema; e like me ko kauoha ma ka buke a Mose.
18They also appointed the priests by their divisions and the Levites by their groups to the service of God in Jerusalem, according to what is written in the Book of Moses.
19A malama aku la ka poe i pio i ka moliaola, i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama mua.
19On the fourteenth day of the first month, the exiles kept the Passover.
20No ka mea, ua huikala pu ia na kahuna, a me na Levi, a ua maemae lakou a pau, a kalua aku la lakou i ka moliaola, no ka poe i pio a pau, a no ko lakou poe hoahanau na kahuna, a no lakou iho.
20All the priests and Levites had purified themselves and were ceremonially clean. And the Levites slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the exiles, for their priestly brothers, and for themselves.
21A ai iho la na mamo a Iseraela, ka poe i hoi mai, mai ke pio ana mai, a me ka poe a pau i hookaawale ia lakou iho mai ka mea haumia o na lahuikanaka o ka aina, e imi ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela;
21The Israelites who had returned from exile ate it, together with all who had separated themselves from the uncleanness of the peoples of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel.
22A malama lakou i ka ahaaina berena hu ole i na la ehiku me ka olioli: no ka mea, o Iehova ka i hoohauoli mai ia lakou, a hoohuli mai i ka naau o ke alii o Asuria ia lakou, e hooikaika i ko lakou lima i ka hana ana i ka hale o ke Akua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
22For seven days they kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread with joy, because the LORD had made them joyful and turned the heart of the king of Assyria toward them to strengthen their hands in the work on the house of the God of Israel.
